The opulent art and architecture of our nation is testimony to the fact that there were kings, patrons and national leaders who have motivated artists from time to time.
In the exhibition titled ‘Panorama 21’, 15 artists from different states will celebrate 75 years of India’s independence through the display of fresh artworks. Chief guests at the inauguration will be politicians Jaya Jaitley and Maneka Gandhi. The mélange of vibrant hues makes the exhibition one of its kind in today’s times.
